The hazardous weather outlook highlights the threat for
flash flooding if more rainfall occurs in those areas, Talley said

"There's a flooding potential from Blount County to
Jefferson to Shelby and eastward," she said. "If anything additional happens,
we could experience flooding, but our confidence isn't high enough that it will
happen to issue a flash flood watch."

The forecast shows that showers and thunderstorms are likely today between 1 p.m.
and 4 p.m. Tonight, there is a 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms
before 1 a.m.

According to the service, the main threat of flash flooding
is along and north of a line from Calera to Equality to Valley.
